“I’m not looking at this as a failure. It’s time,” Tomas told the Web site. “For 25 years I’ve given up my weekends. I coach my kids. We come home from a game on Saturday, I have to jump in the shower, come to work and work until 3:30 in the morning.”

“This is making me so sad. My husband and I had some great times with you guys while we were dating. We haven't lived in the area for a while but when I do come back down there you guys have always been as I drove down Route 34 and I remember some GREAT times!!! You will be missed!!! Best of luck in the future Jorge and Dave!!! XOXO,” Emilia Varga Rubino posted.

Then there are heartfelt messages from band members who said they’ve never been treated better than by the people of Gators.

“Thanks for a fun 15 years guys! I truly appreciate all the support you've given to the bands I've played with. You are hands down the best bar owners I've ever played for. Best of luck in the future,” Adam Robinson posted.

Gators will sign off this weekend with just a normal Saturday night – no party, no DJ, just a regular Saturday night.
